That would be best a separate service/system, as much as possible. It's rather awkward to have a service try to monitor its own availability.

Looks pretty neat, and I think you can connect this to UptimeRobot. But it is based on PHP 😞 , I dont know about you guys - but I personally hate PHP for its slowness.

So, my vote would be...

• Node.js based because I like node, it's pretty fast, and easy to develop in.
• Redis for stats. Push/pop json strings from a list, for every hour or day or whatever you'd like. Or go with Cassandra if you want a "real" database.
• Mozilla's MetricsGraphics for charting

Use Graphite/Grafana to make some nice graphs. Would be nice to host away from Digital Ocean (how else to monitor DO going down...), but it makes sense internally to just host it on the master server for the moment.
